To My Neighbor


I lift you higher,
lift you out
of your body cells
stuffed with anxiety
of your past -
an evil load that smells.

I'll fill each cell
with love and joy
that makes the
angels dance.
You'll glide through earthly
filth and stench -
a spiritual trance.

From your youth filled eyes,
your hands
and feet,
a holy peace shall flow,
so you and I
be filled with grace -
let us be still
and know.

William Hermanns
[P527]

Seelentränen


Seelentränen sind Gedichte,
rot mit Herzblut aufgeschrieben,
tiefem Menschenleid zum Ruhm,

Lies sie still in reinem Lichte,
unbeschattet,
frei von Trieben:
Du betrittst ein Heiligtum.


Wilhelm Hermanns
[G001]

Poem of William Hermanns

English Poetry List

P196

               Unite Humanity

Unite Humanity, unite —
one fellowship on earth!
Too long we turned our back to peace,
too long life had no worth.
The sun, the earth and you are made,
to share, to wonder, not to hate.
Draw we not hope with our first breath?
Hope knows no gun, no death.

Come brothers from the desert heat,
and from the icy shore,
let us together build one world,
and marching feet no more.
One world, one peace where you with me
can meet as brothers proud and free.
Is not the sun, the earth, the air
for you and me to share?

Your child, my child, is it not born
and nursed in love to live;
not handed down from Mount Sinai
one law: Receive to give?
Come let us vow: Your son, my son
no longer shall embrace the gun.
Behold, one light shines from above —
one dignity, one love !

                     William Hermanns      [P196]
